My university is a non-target school for top graduate programs with around a ~67.6% admission rate and an unranked business school by USNews. The total student population of CSUF's business college is around 9,000+, and I was successful in differentiating myself and being the very first deferred MBA admit out of my university.

About Saleem

My name is Saleem, and I am a 3-year graduate from California State University, Fullerton (CSUF), a four-year public university. I was also accepted to Wharton Business School, MIT Sloan, and Yale SOM for my deferred MBA. I currently work at a San Francisco based Private Equity firm called Gryphon Investors. My university is a non-target school for top consulting firms with around a ~67.6% admission rate and an unranked business school by USNews. The total student population of CSUF's business college is around 9,000+, and I was successful in differentiating myself and getting my profile in front of interviewers at most of the Big4 Consulting Groups (Deloitte Consulting, EY-Parthenon, Strategy&) and the three MBB frms (McKinsey, Bain, BCG). For many of these firms, I was the FIRST to interview from my undergraduate program in my school's history and the first to receive job offers. Regarding Deferred MBAs - I was successful in studying for the GRE, preparing for my interviews, and attaining admission to top programs on my own. I love to share my accumulated knowledge after having gone through the process with students at all stages of the application cycle and thought process. Whether you are aiming to learn more about the programs or are in the middle of crafting your essays - I am the person to meet with!
